Atlantic Union Bankshares Reports First Quarter Financial Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (NYSE: AUB) reported a net income of $32.7 million for Q1 2023, translating to earnings per share (EPS) of $0.44. Adjusted operating earnings were $47.2 million with an EPS of $0.63, excluding a $13.4 million loss from securities sales and a $5.0 million legal reserve. The company's balance sheet repositioning strategy involved selling $505.7 million in available-for-sale securities, intended to boost liquidity and enhance earnings potential over two years. Net interest income fell to $153.4 million, a decline attributed to market conditions. The nonperforming asset ratio rose to 0.20%, while net charge-offs increased to 0.13% of average loans. Despite these challenges, total assets were $20.1 billion, underpinned by strong loan growth of $1.1 billion year-over-year.

RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (the “Company” or “Atlantic Union”) (NYSE: AUB) reported net income available to common shareholders of $32.7 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.44 for the first quarter of 2023.

Excluding a pre-tax loss on the sale of securities of $13.4 million due to the sale of available for sale (“AFS”) securities and a $5.0 million legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter we previously disclosed, the Company reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders⁽¹⁾ of $47.2 million and adjusted diluted operating earnings per common share⁽¹⁾ of $0.63.

On January 18, 2023, February 9, 2023, and March 6^th through the 9^th of 2023, the Company executed a balance sheet repositioning strategy and sold AFS securities with a total book value of $505.7 million at a pre-tax loss of $13.4 million and used the net proceeds to reduce existing high costing Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings. The deleverage strategy provides the Company with improved liquidity, enhanced tangible common equity, and additional run rate earnings. The Company estimates the loss will be earned back in approximately two years.

“Atlantic Union’s business model has stood the test of time over our 121-year history,” said John C. Asbury, president and chief executive officer of Atlantic Union. “Our franchise remains strong even in these uncertain times as we are a diversified, traditional, full-service bank that delivers the products and services of a larger bank with the local decision making, responsiveness and client service orientation to positively set us apart from other banks, both larger and smaller. We also believe that our stable deposit base remains a particular strength of our franchise.”

“Operating under the mantra of soundness, profitability and growth – in that order of priority - Atlantic Union remains committed to generating sustainable, profitable growth and building long term value for our shareholders.”

NET INTEREST INCOME

For the first quarter of 2023, net interest income was $153.4 million, a decrease of $10.4 million from $163.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Net interest income (FTE)⁽¹⁾ was $157.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease of $10.7 million from the fourth quarter of 2022. The decreases in net interest income and net interest income (FTE)⁽¹⁾ were primarily driven by the lower day count in the quarter, higher deposit and borrowing costs due to increases in market interest rates, as well as changes in the deposit mix as depositors migrated to higher costing interest bearing deposit accounts. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in loan yields due primarily to variable rate loans repricing as short-term interest rates increased and an increase in average loans. Our net interest margin decreased 20 basis points from the prior quarter to 3.41% at March 31, 2023, and our net interest margin (FTE)⁽¹⁾ decreased 20 basis points during the same period to 3.50%. Earning asset yields increased by 38 basis points to 4.92% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to the impact of increases in market interest rates on loans. Our cost of funds increased by 58 basis points to 1.42% at March 31, 2023 compared to the prior quarter, driven by higher deposit and borrowing costs and funding mix as noted above.

The Company’s net interest margin (FTE) ⁽¹⁾ includes the impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments. Net accretion related to acquisition accounting was $883,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, representing a decrease of $380,000 from the prior quarter. The fourth quarter of 2022, the first quarter of 2023, and the remaining estimated net accretion impact are reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

ASSET QUALITY

Past Due Loans

At March 31, 2023, past due loans still accruing interest totaled $30.9 million or 0.21% of LHFI, compared to $30.0 million or 0.21% of LHFI at December 31, 2022, and $29.6 million or 0.22% of LHFI at March 31, 2022. Of the total past due loans still accruing interest, $7.2 million or 0.05% of LHFI were loans past due 90 days or more at March 31, 2023, compared to $7.5 million or 0.05% of LHFI at December 31, 2022, and $8.2 million or 0.06% of LHFI at March 31, 2022.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At March 31, 2023, the ACL was $131.7 million and included an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) of $116.5 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments of $15.2 million. The ACL at March 31, 2023 increased $7.3 million from December 31, 2022 due to increasing uncertainty in the economic outlook and loan growth during the first quarter of 2023.

The ACL as a percentage of LHFI was 0.90% at March 31, 2023, an increase of 4 basis points from December 31, 2022. The ALLL as a percentage of LHFI was 0.80% at March 31, 2023, compared to 0.77% at December 31, 2022.

Net Charge-offs

Net charge-offs were $4.6 million or 0.13% of total average LHFI on an annualized basis for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $810,000 or 0.02% (annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2022, and less than 0.01% of total average LHFI (annualized) for the first quarter of 2022. The majority of net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2023 were related to two commercial loans within the commercial and industrial and commercial real estate portfolios.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the first quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $11.9 million, compared to a provision for credit losses of $6.3 million in the prior quarter, and a provision for credit losses of $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2022. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2023 reflected a provision of $10.4 million for loan losses and a $1.5 million provision for unfunded commitments.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income decreased $14.9 million to $9.6 million for the first quarter of 2023 from $24.5 million in the prior quarter, primarily due to $13.4 million of losses incurred on the sale of AFS securities, driven by the Company’s balance sheet repositioning transactions executed during the quarter. In addition, loan-related interest rate swap fees decreased $2.2 million from the prior quarter due to lower transaction volumes. These declines in noninterest income were partially offset by increases in several noninterest income categories including certain service charges, fiduciary and asset management fees, mortgage banking income, and bank owned life insurance income.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2023 increased to $108.3 million from $99.8 million in the prior quarter primarily due to a $1.8 million increase in salaries and benefits expense due to seasonal increases in payroll related taxes and 401(k) contribution expenses in the first quarter, (which was partially offset by decreases in performance based variable incentive compensation and profit-sharing expenses), a $2.0 million increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Commission (“FDIC”) assessment fees due to the increase in the FDIC assessment rates, effective January 1, 2023, and the impact of prior periods’ FDIC assessment fee refunds reflected in the prior quarter, and other expenses increased $7.0 million, reflecting a $5.0 million legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, and a prior quarter gain of $3.2 million related to the sale and leaseback of an office building, partially offset by lower teammate and travel costs. These increases in noninterest expense were partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in technology and data processing primarily due to the write-down of obsolete software in the prior quarter, and a $1.0 million decrease in professional services related to strategic projects that occurred in the prior quarter.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 17.0%, compared to 17.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in the effective tax rate primarily reflects the impact of changes in the proportion of tax-exempt income to pre-tax income.

BALANCE SHEET

At March 31, 2023, total assets were $20.1 billion, a decrease of $357.8 million or approximately 7.1% (annualized) from December 31, 2022, and an increase of $320.9 million or approximately 1.6% from March 31, 2022. Total assets decreased from the prior quarter primarily due to a decline in the investment securities portfolio of $514.4 million, primarily due to the sale of AFS securities as part of the Company’s balance sheet repositioning executed during the quarter. The decrease in assets from the prior quarter was partially offset by a $135.1 million increase in loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), driven by loan growth. Total assets increased from the prior year due to the increase in total loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) of $1.1 billion, driven by loan growth, partially offset by a decrease in the investment securities portfolio of $831.8 million primarily due to a decline in the market value of the AFS securities portfolio, as well as the sale of AFS securities as part of the Company’s balance sheet restructuring executed during the first quarter of 2023.

At March 31, 2023, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) totaled $14.6 billion, an increase of $135.1 million or 3.8% (annualized) from $14.4 billion, at December 31, 2022. Average loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) totaled $14.5 billion at March 31, 2023, an increase of $388.2 million or 11.2% (annualized) from the prior quarter. At March 31, 2023, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) increased $1.1 billion or 8.4% from March 31, 2022, and quarterly average loans increased $1.2 billion or 9.1% from the same period in the prior year.

At March 31, 2023, total investments were $3.2 billion, a decrease of $514.4 million from December 31, 2022, and a decrease of $831.8 million from March 31, 2022. AFS securities totaled $2.3 billion at March 31, 2023, $2.7 billion at December 31, 2022, and $3.2 billion at March 31, 2022. At March 31, 2023, total net unrealized losses on the AFS securities portfolio were $407.9 million, an improvement of $54.7 million from total net unrealized losses on AFS securities of $462.6 at December 31, 2022. Held to maturity (“HTM”) securities are carried at cost and totaled $855.4 million at March 31, 2023, $847.7 million at December 31, 2022, and $756.9 million at March 31, 2022 and have net unrealized losses of $32.3 million at March 31, 2023, an improvement of $13.5 million from net unrealized losses on HTM securities of $45.8 at December 31, 2022.

At March 31, 2023, total deposits were $16.5 billion, an increase of $524.2 million or approximately 13.3% (annualized) from December 31, 2022. Average deposits at March 31, 2023 decreased from the prior quarter by $194.5 million or 4.7% (annualized). Total deposits at March 31, 2023 decreased $28.3 million or 0.2% from March 31, 2022, and quarterly average deposits at March 31, 2023 decreased $97.1 million or 0.6% from the same period in the prior year. Total deposits increased from the prior quarter due to a $829.5 million increase in interest-bearing deposits, which includes approximately $377.9 million in brokered deposits, partially offset by a $305.2 million decrease in demand deposits, as customers moved funds from lower to higher yielding deposit products.

The following table shows the Company’s capital ratios at the quarters ended:

		March 31,		December 31,		March 31,

Tangible common equity to tangible assets (1)		6.91	%	6.43	%	7.21	%

_____________________________

At March 31, 2023, the Company’s common equity to total assets ratio and tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio increased compared to the prior quarter primarily due to the decline in unrealized losses on the AFS securities portfolio, driven by lower long-term interest rates. These ratios decreased compared to the prior year primarily due to unrealized losses on the AFS securities portfolio recorded in other comprehensive income due to higher market interest rates.

During the first quarter of 2023, the Company declared and paid a quarterly dividend on the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock of $171.88 per share (equivalent to $0.43 per outstanding depositary share), consistent with the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company also declared and paid cash dividends of $0.30 per common share, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2022 and an increase of $0.02 or approximately 7.1% from the first quarter of 2022.

_____________________________

(1)		These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes net interest income (FTE), total revenue (FTE), and total adjusted revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE), efficiency ratio (FTE) and adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE), provide valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components.
(2)		These are non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible assets and tangible common equity are used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible assets, tangible common equity and the related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses. The Company believes tangible common equity is an important indication of its ability to grow organically and through business combinations as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies.
(3)		These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that ROTCE is a meaningful supplement to GAAP financial measures and is useful to investors because it measures the performance of a business consistently across time without regard to whether components of the business were acquired or developed internally.
(4)		These are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating measures exclude losses on sale of securities, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, as well as strategic branch closure initiatives and related facility consolidation costs (principally composed of real estate, leases and other assets write downs, as well as severance and expense reduction initiatives). The Company believes these non-GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations.
(5)		All ratios at March 31, 2023 are estimates and subject to change pending the Company’s filing of its FR Y9 C. All other periods are presented as filed.
(6)		The adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes the amortization of intangible assets, losses on sale of securities, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, as well as strategic branch closure initiatives and related facility consolidation costs. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations.
(7)		These are non-GAAP financial measures. Pre-tax pre-provision adjusted earnings excludes the provision for credit losses, which can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period under the CECL methodology, income tax expense, losses on sale of securities, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, as well as strategic branch closure initiatives and related facility consolidation costs. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the Company’s operations.
